Kevin T. Donaldson was 22 when he was killed after a shooting at the Somers House Tavern in Kenosha, Wisconsin, on April 18, 2021. He had been there with friends Cedric Gaston and Atkeem Stevenson. The night included a physical altercation involving another patron, Rakayo Alandis Vinson, who was initially removed from the tavern and then returned shortly afterward to the patio and opened fire.

Donaldson exchanged gunfire with Vinson outside the tavern and was later pronounced dead at a hospital. The attack also killed Gaston and Stevenson and wounded three others. Law enforcement identified Vinson as a person of interest, arrested him, and charged him with three counts of first-degree intentional homicide and three counts of attempted first-degree intentional homicide; surveillance footage and the recovery of a wallet at the scene were reported as part of the investigation.

At trial, prosecutors said Vinson acted in retaliation after the earlier fight; the defense said he acted in self-defense. A jury convicted Vinson on all charges in January 2022 and he received three consecutive life sentences without parole. Does anyone have information about Kevin’s last evening at the tavern or knew him personally?
